“In my nearly four decades observing politics, it is clear that House Speaker Andy Tobin is one of the most qualified candidates to run for and represent rural Arizona in our 1st Congressional District. I believe that Andy’s conservative values and willingness to stand up for rural Arizona in Washington, DC and his leadership skills, honed and tempered in the Arizona House, is just what rural folks — and the Nation — need right now. The opportunity is now and the time is right and I encourage all AZ-01 Republicans to unite behind Tobin’s campaign to restore freedom and liberty to rural Arizona.”

“Rural mayors understand how important it is to send fighters to Washington,” Tobin responded. “I’ll stand beside leaders like Mayor Kenny Evans to make sure rural Arizona’s interests are protected.”

Navajo County Supervisor David Tenney Endorses Andy Tobin

Andy Tobin is the conservative that rural Arizona needs…

Navajo County support continues to rally behind Andy Tobin with Navajo County Supervisor David Tenney’s endorsement today. Tobin has long been a fierce advocate for rural community roads, fire safety, water rights and economic development.

“Andy Tobin is the conservative leader that rural Arizona needs to fight for our practical way of life,” said Navajo County Supervisor David Tenney. “I have spent a lot of time working with Andy to fight for the issues that we care about here in Navajo County, and he has been a champion that gets things done. He has played a key part in the fight to restore much of the money that cities, towns and counties lost from our state’s Highway User Revenue Fund (HURF). As a rural lawmaker he knows that those funds make all the difference to maintaining roads in Navajo County. Andy also understands that Arizona relies heavily on the ability of forest industries to have access to our forests to restore their health, create jobs, reduce threats to our communities, supply clean water, and improve recreation and tourism. He understands that to fuel the rural business of Arizona and to protect our communities from disastrous wildfires, the federal government must use taxpayer resources wisely, and accelerate the success of forest restoration that has taken place in Arizona during the last ten years. Andy has lived in and fought for Arizona since he brought his family here over 30 years ago. He knows rural Arizona, and that is why I endorse Andy Tobin for Congress in Arizona’s 1st Congressional District.”

“Supervisor Tenney is a powerhouse conservative advocate for Navajo County,” said Tobin. “Communities from Kayenta and Holbrook to Show Low have been positively impacted by our relentless fight to restore HURF money. We need to get the EPA off the backs of rural communities who power our state and provide our water. I sincerely thank Supervisor Tenney for his support. Having him on my team will go a long way in Navajo County.”

U.S. Chamber of Commerce Endorses Andy Tobin for Congress

World’s Largest Business Federation Pledges Support for Tobin

Citing Tobin’s extensive and proven track record of advocating for Arizona’s business and economic development opportunities, The United States Chamber of Commerce announced their endorsement today for Andy Tobin’s campaign for Arizona’s 1st Congressional District. The U.S. Chamber pledges the full support of Arizona’s business community as Tobin campaigns throughout the district.

“In today’s economy, it is critical that members of Congress provide strong support of free enterprise and leadership for policies that will return America to its full growth potential,” said U.S. Chamber National Political Director Rob Engstrom. “We’re proud to stand with Andy Tobin and his candidacy for Congress in Arizona’s 1st Congressional District. Andy has a demonstrated record of promoting Arizona jobs, and in this race is the clear choice to lead on policies that will boost economic growth, create jobs and get our country back on track.”

“It is no surprise that the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, the nation’s leading voice for job creators, has endorsed Andy Tobin for Congress,” said U.S. Chamber of Commerce Public Affairs Committee Member Glenn Hamer. “Andy Tobin has been one of the most consequential Arizona legislators in a generation. Few can match his reputation for tax cuts, regulatory reform and tort reform, which have helped spur growth in our economy and made Arizona a much more competitive and attractive state for business. The U.S. Chamber’s endorsement is an acknowledgment of what we in Arizona have known for many years: Andy Tobin will fight tirelessly for jobs and a stronger economy.”

“The United States Chamber of Commerce is a key leader in our fight for economic development and job creation in Arizona,” said Tobin. “I am proud to say that we have made incredible strides to recover jobs, nurture a pro-business environment and attract international companies to Arizona in the past decade. But the work is not done. Having the support of Rob Engstrom, Glenn Hamer and the U.S. Chamber is a valuable resource in my fight to restore more Arizona jobs. When America’s businesses recover and thrive, our country as a whole will return to being an economic leader. I sincerely thank The United States Chamber of Commerce for endorsing my campaign. I look forward to taking proven Arizona solutions to Washington.”

Governor Mitt Romney Endorses Andy Tobin for Congress

“He has the courage and resolve we need in Washington.”

Governor Mitt Romney today announced his support for Andy Tobin for United States Congress in Arizona’s 1st Congressional District. He cites Tobin’s battle-tested conservative track record of advocating for Arizona, Tobin’s integrity as a legislator and his steadfast resolve in standing up for his conservative values.

“I am proud to support Andy Tobin for Congress. Andy is a proven conservative whose leadership in Arizona has been crucial to cutting state government spending, lowering taxes and fighting to stop ObamaCare,” said Romney. “He has the courage and resolve we need in Washington. Andy is a leader who will do the right thing for the people of Arizona.”

“In 2012, I did everything in my power to help Governor Romney win Arizona and win the Presidency,” said Tobin. “While we fell short of the White House, Governor Romney won the hearts and minds of Arizonans. He won our state and the 1st Congressional District decisively. Ultimately, the 2012 election left Arizona with the sense that our country missed a great opportunity to elect a great leader and American to help get America back on its feet. Time and time again, Governor Romney’s domestic and foreign policies have proven to be spot on. While I too feel like we missed a great opportunity to elect Governor Romney as our President, I have never stopped fighting to restore Arizona to its conservative values. I am deeply honored to have the endorsement of Governor Mitt Romney. I know that with his support, we will take back Arizona’s 1st Congressional District and send a conservative with a proven track record to Washington. My deepest thanks go out to this great Republican leader.”

Arizona Correctional Peace Officers Endorse Tobin

“We are united behind Tobin to defeat Ann Kirkpatrick.”

Law enforcement community support for Tobin continues to unite behind Andy Tobin for United States Congress. This week the Arizona Correctional Peace Officers Association rallies behind Andy with some 2,000 members spread across Arizona’s 1st Congressional District.

“Andy Tobin is the battle-tested conservative that rural Arizona desperately needs right now,” said Arizona Correctional Peace Officers Association Executive Director Tixoc Munoz. “The AZCPOA has over two-thousand members in Arizona’s 1st Congressional District who understand that we need a conservative fighter and friend of public safety representing us in Congress. As the son of a retired New York Police Department Lieutenant, Tobin understands the importance of advocating for the law enforcement communities in Arizona. He has fought to secure our Southern border and for a crackdown on illegal immigration. There’s no other candidate in the race for CD-01 that has the experience and the proven track record to represent the voice of Arizona’s Corrections Officers in Washington. This is why the Arizona Correctional Peace Officers Association wholeheartedly endorses Andy Tobin for Congress in Arizona’s 1st Congressional District. We are united behind Tobin to defeat Ann Kirkpatrick.”

“Law enforcement and public safety professionals hold a special place in my heart,” said Tobin. “My father is a 22-year veteran of the New York City Police Department. I carry the values he instilled in my siblings and myself with me to this day. I look forward to meeting with as many corrections officers as possible as we continue to travel the district and build support. Heartfelt thanks to Mr. Munoz and to all public safety professionals for their daily sacrifice.”

He will fight for his constituents by bringing solutions, not problems, to the table. Those of us in Arizona need an advocate like Andy Tobin. Please join me in standing with him today.”

“As a rural legislator in Mohave County, I know that our residents care about healthcare, jobs and the economy,” said Mohave County Supervisor Hildy Angius. “Andy voted against ObamaCare and led the fight to pass the first Healthcare Freedom of Choice Act in the nation. He never wavered, even when the fight got messy. A small businessman himself, Andy is the only person in this race that has worked tirelessly to make rural Arizona a place for small businesses to grow and flourish by balancing Arizona’s budget and cutting taxes; giving taxpayers and job creators more money in their pockets. This is why I am endorsing Speaker Andy Tobin for U.S. Congress in Arizona’s 1st Congressional District.”

In 2013, Forbes named Arizona its “Top State for Future Job Growth.” This amazing award is due in part to Andy’s relentless fight to cut government and cut spending in Arizona. Tobin is a battle-tested conservative fighter for small businesses, families and taxpayers. Here’s what the Arizona Restaurant Association has to say about Andy:

Pinal County Clerk of the Superior Court Chad Roche Endorses Tobin

“There’s no other candidate in this race with a conservative track record like Andy Tobin.”

Leading up to the SaddleBrooke Republican CD-01 forum today, Pinal County endorsements continue to flood in for Andy. Pinal County Clerk of the Superior Court, Chad Roche, is the latest Pinal County supporter for Tobin’s campaign.

“There’s no other candidate in this race with a conservative track record like Andy Tobin,” said Pinal County Clerk of the Superior Court Chad Roche. “There’s probably not another candidate in the country with conservative credentials matching Tobin’s. He fought against ObamaCare in Arizona harder than anyone else in the state. He shrunk Arizona’s government more than anyone else in state history. He has stood up for the unborn, 2nd Amendment freedoms and school choice. He knows what it’s like to be a small business owner and family man. I know he’ll faithfully represent rural Arizona in Washington. It is for these reasons that I am endorsing Andy Tobin for United States Congress in Arizona’s 1st Congressional District.”

“Chad knows that to take back Washington, Arizona’s 1st Congressional District needs an experienced, proven conservative that will vote the heart of this district,” said Tobin. “I thank Chad for believing in and supporting me as we fight for Arizona’s conservative values. I look forward to taking the solutions we have implemented here in Arizona to Washington.”
